A review by bookapotamus
Her Daughter's Mother by Daniela Petrova

5.0

The intriguing synopsis of this suspenseful read was definitely one that hooked me in right away!

Combined with meeting the absolutely love Daniela Petrova at a Book Expo party this Spring, I knew I had to read this. And I couldn’t have been more pleased with what transpired behind this beautiful cover!

We meet Lana and Tyler, who have been trying to conceive a child for years. And after several rounds of IVF, they decide to try one last time with an egg donor.

Lana is from Bulgaria and she wishes to find a donor from her native country. When Tyler places an ad for an “anonymous” Bulgarian egg donor - against Lana’s wishes - and finds a match, the results turn out to be any BUT anonymous.

It’s something I read at a pace that was intense and hurried. The bizarre situation that Lana finds herself in after Katya, the mysterious egg donor, suddenly disappears, is just the beginning of an engrossing story of 3 people in a tense and twisted dance of betrayal.

A complex and elaborate mystery enveloped in obsession, delusions and an overabundance of emotions.

A fantastic debut! Huge congrats to Daniela!
